Thats not true. I have just been through the process in Kalasin, either return to Bangkok or transfer the balance to new account in Kalasin. I also checked with 3 branches...same story. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t remember exactly what I wanted, but it needed proof of ID. My Passport was at immigration (work permit processing I think), I had a letter. I had my Thai Driving Licence & UK driving Licence, I had a previous Passport (corner clipped off). Bank teller wasn’t sure and got the manager. The branch manager wouldn’t accept any of this. I made him call head office, I spoke with head office told them what ID I had, they said it was fine. Branch manager, still refused to accept my ID and refused my transaction (or whatever it was I wanted to do at the time). I recall getting quite irritated and asking him why is he so stupid... (in Thai) in front of his staff... Feeling slightly indignant and somewhat better.... I jumped in the motor and went to the next SCB down the road... in and out, no issues !!!.... Sometimes these fools can just push your buttons !!! If I need to leave my passport at immigration , I always make sure that I go and do my banking before I give my PP to immigration , I go to the bank the day before and get my business done and then the next day I hand my passport in to immigration Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much money do you think it should cost ? The separation counter glass 5k a piece tops, the monitor printer etc 25K tops. Then the bigger damage being the actual security doors and windows, no way those cost more than 200K. Actually i think just 150k total. Do not believe a word that those 'security doors' are even worth naming 'security' as he kicked them in with some basic rocks lol. Banksters as usual.

The stuff they use? Windows 95 right? Maybe 2000 baht lol. Serious answer? Doubt over 5-10K, that was included in the total of 25K already, at a high estimate. You could buy a new Windows computer with 23 inch monitor and a 3in1print/scanner for less than 15K total easily. That computer and monitor would be way better than what they had for sure. The staff should be thankful, they get paid off leave due to fixing the place up and finally some decent hardware too.

I had a passport (expired) that was acceptable according to head office and the subsequence branch... The issue was the Manager being a d!<k.... as I wrote, sometimes they can just ‘push your buttons’.... Its good that you are organised, but still, in Thailand just when you think you’ve got everything covered, something else is required !!!... when you think you’ve got more than enough documentation, a date is wrong on one of them !!!... ---- A few years back I received a call from TrueMove asking if I wanted to move my contract to 3G high speed (same price)... sure, so I agreed. Travelled overseas for a couple of months, returned my phone was not working, no connection. Called up True - its was because I’d not paid my bill. But I had direct debit. Apparently that was cancelled when I upgraded to 3G high speed and I need to apply again. No problem, easily done first time around.... No... even after getting to the Bank and True visions to talk with each other they couldn’t resolve the billing issue, bank refused to pay the direct debit even though they’d being doing so months before hand.... I chalked that one down to TiT and just paid each month... a bit of a PITA. Another time I had a reasonable sum in my account - I wanted to keep that out of the way and set up a second account to use for online stuff and carry the ATM card etc... Even though I already had an account with SCB they wouldn’t open another because I didn’t have a work permit... The fact that I already had an account with them with a few million baht in it was totally lost on them and they didn’t care that wanted to keep that more secure... This one irritated the <deleted> out of me. Opened a second account with a different bank as soon as I had a Yellow Tabien baan and Pink ID. The banks... lots of nonsensical silly stuff.... they can push your buttons !!! I can understand why someone can get extremely upset with the banks (my stuff was very mild) but for others the awkwardness of dealing with banks can cost them a lot of money or leave them high and dry without access to their own money..... No excuse for trashing a bank... well.. maybe there is !!! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double charging ???... you see where this is going don’t you.... ... You may have ‘gone-native’....
